FOR CONTEXT

Here is his website where he does nothing but try to convince others about his ideas: https://bitcoinhivemind.com/

And here is his old website: https://www.truthcoin.info/

This guy literally be talkin shit to people on twitter saying "I don't got time to convince you" yet does nothing but try to convince people. Honestly it's putting me on edge.

I don't see why he couldn't just make a prediction market framework with DLCs on Lightning...? Why fucking go through the hassle of trying to convince the entire Bitcoin ecosystem of his drivechain agenda? I guess this is what 30 years in academia gets you huh

There is a difference between trying to convince the right people and wasting time on the wrong people.

People who are not familiar with and do not want to educate themselves on certain concepts, are not worth engaging with at this point (but may be in the future).

Satoshi did the same thing. There was a point in the early days where he gave up on trying to convince people.

Cypherpunks write code, they don't argue (too much).
